Since the leading term of the polynomial (the term in a polynomial which contains the highest power of the variable) is x4, then the degree is 4, i.e. even, and the leading coefficient is 1, i.e. positive.

This means that f(x)→∞ as x→−∞ and f(x)→∞ as x→∞.

Ten percent of the reds are added to twenty percent of the blues, and the total is 24. Yet the product of the number of reds and

salantis [7]

0.10r + 0.20b = 24
3r = b + 20....b = 3r - 20

0.10r + 0.20(3r - 20) = 24
0.10r + 0.60r - 4 = 24
0.70r = 24 + 4
0.70r = 28
r = 28/0.70
r = 40 <=== there are 40 reds

0.10r + 0.20b = 24
0.10(40) + 0.20b = 24
4 + 0.20b = 24
0.20b = 24 - 4
0.20b = 20
b = 20/0.20
b = 100 <=== there are 100 blues

Which of the following are solutions to the quadratic equation? Check all that

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf \ \ \ x=-9 \ \ or \ \ x=2 \ \ \ }$

Step-by-step explanation:

hello,

$2x^2+7x-14=x^2+4\\ 2x^2+7x-14-x^2-4=0\\ x^2+7x-18=0\\x^2-2x+9x-18=0\\ x(x-2)+9(x-2)=0\\ (x+9)(x-2)=0\\ x+9 = 0 \ \text{or} \ x-2=0\\ x = -9 \ \text{or} \ x=2$

hope this helps
